AgentGarten: Code Worlds for Evolving Agents

We introduce AgentGarten, a framework that couples simulators and game engines with a shared neural renderer to build real-time interactive environments.

Key points

  • Interactive virtual worlds allow agents to learn through exploration and interaction.
  • What agents can learn is bounded by the environments they practice in, which must be faithful, with consistent state, rules, and dynamics, and realistic, with observations that follow the real-world visual distributions.
  • To build the neural renderer, we adapt a pretrained video model to geometry conditions, distill it with our proposed Adversarial Forcing, and optimize inference for real-time interaction.
  • In AgentGarten, agents perceive the world through visual observations, interact with it in real time, and improve by distilling each round of experience into playbooks that subsequent agents inherit and refine.
